[It's nighttime in Luceti and Roku's sitting atop the roof of House 56. Why was he up there? Probably bored and was watching the stars or maybe just checking the damage done by Zuko's attempt to firebend. Possibility of leaks are not fun...and no, he's not holding off on that talk he was suppose to have with Zuko, not at all.

It's more like...where do you even start? A war, Azula, grandchildren...his grandson being labeled a traitor. He sighs and flops on his back.]

A lot sure can happen in more then a hundred years.

What were you expecting?

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

I thought you would be more... regal, I suppose.

_{[She waves a hand dismissively. He's from the Fire Nation, he should be dignified, dammit.]}

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

I am when I have to be. Not all the time, Princess Azula.

_{[There's something about him that reminds her of Zuko, which is a pity, because she doesn't like Zuko.]}

I know you're not royalty, but you could at least try to take care of your image. I'm just looking out for you, you know.

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

Royalty never stopped Sozin from having fun. Besides, this isn't home anymore, and not everyone knows who or what the Avatar is.

Well it's nice to hear my granddaughter's looking out for me.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

Sozin, having fun?

_{[The idea of the stern-looking Fire Lord she's always seen in pictures doing anything but being a ruler seems alien to her - and then his next comment stops her cold. For once, she can't keep the surprise off of her face.]}

What?

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

He was a teen just like me at one point before becoming Fire Lord.



What, what...?

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

My great-grandfather was Fire Lord Sozin!

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

He is!? But then...he-...they-...

But aren't you two...

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

No, wait...

_{[Azula's mind is already hard at work, gears turning and clicking.]}

My father's grandfather was Sozin. But I never bothered to find out about my mother's.

_{[She blinks and looks at Roku again.]}

...what a strange coincidence.

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

It...it is, if it's true. Even stranger, considering I was friends with Sozin.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

Interesting.

_{[She bows slightly]}

I suppose that means I should address you as 'grandfather', although you hardly look older than my brother.

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

Er...Roku is just fine, please. That just makes me sound old.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

You are old.

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

Then learn to respect your elder's wishes.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

As long as those wishes coincide wiht those of the Fire Nation.

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

If you haven't realize, Azula, we're no longer in Fire Nation territory. Anything goes here.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

True. It does change things, doesn't it?

[flamedork.livejournal.com]

Yea, not much from home really apply here...don't get any weird ideas though.

[rocket-feet.livejournal.com]

Perish the thought.
